Emotional Healing: Kelsey Wilson Explains Cognitive Processing Theory

The Melanin Initiative's Podcast

Welcome to the Melanin Initiative!
In this episode, we talk with Kelsey Wilson, LCSW, a therapist in private practice specializing in helping women feel seen and heard in their personal and professional lives. Kelsey shares her insights on Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and its application in treating depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, burnout, trauma, and life transition issues. She provides person-centered care using evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, and Cognitive Processing Therapy for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
We delve into her motivation for offering CPT, what a typical session looks like, how to select the right intervention, and the benefits of extended sessions. Kelsey also provides treatment recommendations and advice on preparing for CPT. With a focus on holistic wellness, Kelsey is well-versed in working with multicultural issues and diverse populations.
